Why Mold Grows in Lafayette Homes

Shaded, wooded lots stay damp long after the rain stops. Crawl spaces, basements, north-facing walls and roofs under heavy tree cover are where mold takes hold.

Signs You May Have Mold

  • Stains or spots that come back after cleaning
  • Condensation on windows and cold walls, or damp-feeling carpet
  • A musty odor when the heat or air conditioning turns on
  • Bubbling paint or wallpaper on exterior walls and near showers

When to Call a Professional

Small spots of surface mold under about 10 square feet, the EPA’s guideline, can usually be cleaned by a homeowner. Larger areas, hidden mold, mold in HVAC systems or mold after contaminated water need professional containment and removal.

Our Mold Remediation Process in Lafayette

  1. Inspection: We find the mold and the moisture source behind it, using moisture meters to see how far it has spread.
  2. Containment: Plastic barriers and negative air pressure keep spores from reaching the rest of the property.
  3. Removal: Mold-damaged drywall, insulation and flooring are removed and bagged, and remaining surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. Drying: We dry the structure so mold can’t return.
  5. Repairs: Our construction team can rebuild what was removed.

Because mold almost always starts with water, fixing the source comes first. If a leak or flood caused it, our water damage restoration team can dry the property before mold removal begins. Learn more about our mold remediation and mold removal services.
